How we brought clarity
In spring 2020, BDC called on Ascribe to write multiple series of articles on high-priority topics for entrepreneurs: COVID-19, mental health and managing remote teams. We interviewed BDC personnel and external subject-matter experts across the country to gather perspective and practical insights business owners could put to immediate use. Our research helped find and refine each story, which we wrote up in a brisk, accessible journalistic style, handling all required sign-offs seamlessly and meeting BDC’s urgent timelines to support Canadian business owners.
